The Reds are just a point behind leaders Manchester United.
Benitez said: “As far as the title chase is concerned, we just have to keep doing our job, we must not be concerned about United’s results and how they are playing.
“If United do make mistakes, we must be ready, and that means carrying on doing what we are doing and winning points.
“We are playing well and they will see that we are playing well and trying to win every game.
“We have eight games left and every one must be won and be treated as a cup final.
“Certainly we must maintain this momentum and, when we are playing well, it just increases confidence.
“We now have an international break so the players must come back from that, re-group and start playing again just as we are at the moment.”
